Stanky Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 This month, rather than open a money pool for the usual running costs, we have decided to continue the AS tradition of raising money in memory of sadly departed member @Richard who is no longer with us. Anything we raise will be donated in full to the family via @reb or donated directly to a nominated cause as the family wishes. Anything anyone is able to give will be gratefully received, and we appreciate this even more in the present economic circumstances. The page we have created can be found HERE The site's running costs this month will be covered by the AS admin team.

aldo135 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Only met Richard a few times, but he sold the idea of an 850 to me by showing off the built in child seat in his car! I bought one from Andy_CMS and it is one of my favourite cars I’ve owned. RIP Richard, love to REB and family reb and stripped fred 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long may I not need it! aldo135 and Jim Bell 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chompy_snake Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Wonder if we can raise enough for @reb to do a Volvo rescue from Sweden ? Made my donation, unfortunately smaller than I would have liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Jude Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Didn't know the guy really, and while money doesn't bring anyone back at least it can help do something in some small way. Will give another few quid once pay day has arrived. reb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
